I'm new too ebase and am having a problem exporting data to a word based mail
program. I could use some help (I didn't find this readily answered in the
archives). Here's my problem
When I merge my export data into word, I am getting the organization name
printed twice on the mailing label instead of the person at the agency. I
don't know what I'm doing wrong here. From what I can see, it looks like if
the account is indicated to be an organization, then I'm getting the agency
name twice as the name field. If the account is marked as an individual, in
most cases, it looks like I'm getting the right address, even if there is a
company line indicated. Is there a way to fix this without changing every
account to an Individual designation?
You don't say what fields you are exporting. The field called
Name Line contains the organization name if the record is flagged as
anything except Ind. If you export Name Line for the names, and
Business/Organization on another line, you will get the organization
name twice on business and organization records. Use Name Line/Label
for the names, which contains only the individual names in the
records.
